Back from Nicaragua

Over all I would say that this was a great trip. I didn't really like everyone I was with but I think the trip made up for that. I had a bit of a culture shock I will admit and it was a rough thing for me to go through, so i was more shy than usual with people, so I think that was an attribute to the not getting along with everyone thing. I was being too sensitive at times and i should have just taken a deep breath and chilled.

So Um, since I last wrote we did a ton of things while in Nicaragua. We visited Granada, Leon, Masaya, and Esteli. We visited a coffee co-op. I got bitten by a monkey, I promise there's a good story to go with that. We met with a FSLN commander who was a woman,she was awesome. We went to a volcano. We stayed at the beach which was really fun. I got eaten alive by bugs. They're huge in central america and leave nickel to quarter sized bites. It was upsetting we didn't get to meet with some people we were planned to meet with though so we'll see how that affects my paper.

I posted pictures on the book of face.
